Allow me to impress upon you the severe mistake you have made. For years my conduct has been largely benign. And yet, without provocation, you have severed our detente and forced me to unleash upon you the vengeful flames of a thousand suns. You shall curse your mother for the day of your birth. So go now, GO - and begin your life of fear, knowing that when you least expect it the looming sword of Damocles will crash down upon you, cleaving you in twain…

Bouncy castles sure seem to get a lot of buzz lately.

Buzz? Bouncy castles? Is there some wacko group that you’re part of that are obsessed with bouncy castles rather than the rest of us who just rent them for the occasional kids’ party. Is your yard filled with bouncy castles? What next, bouncy castle porn? It’s too weird, man.

Didn’t realize JohnT meant Cardigan on this thread, thought his dog was a Cardigan Welsh Corgi, which is a cute dog.

Cardigan Welsh Corgis are over bred, over hyped, over priced and almost as annoying as the people who rave about them. Give me a good, honest mutt any day.

I’m thinking about getting a new puppy.

Everyone buys puppies. It’s much harder for adult dogs to get adopted. (Actually, I’m being serious here. It’s something worth considering.)

I’m gonna try out a new local restaurant today.

And we’re supposed to be impressed that you have so much disposable income?

I just tried a new brand of biodegradable litter for my cat’s litter box.

So how does it taste?

I just had chicken and rice for supper and ate way too much.

“We secretly substituted a new brand of biodegradable kitty litter for this dish of chicken and rice. And look - **Thin Ice** gobbled it up without even noticing. What a glutton.”

Do you also align your chakras and cleanse your aura? Goddamn hippie woo merchant.

I’ve given up trying to convince people at work that the full moon has no effect on human behavior.

Jeepers, how do you ever get anything done in such wacky conditions?

Wouldn’t it be great if everyone lived near a freshwater lake.

Way to be pointlessly critical of the living conditions of 99% of the world.

Let me guess: it was a bad, bad cookie, and you’re about to start a MPSIMS thread about it?

Be thankful you _have_ leftover rice. You’re eating a lot better than the average citizen of North Korea.

I made a good chicken Alfredo in the Instant Pot tonight.

All you hipsters love your instant pot. What’s wrong with making it the old fashioned way.

I made lasagna.
